Where trauma meets resilience: building compassionate systems
Spark Social Ventures is a mission-driven social enterprise that empowers individuals and organisations with evidence-based trauma-informed practices and resilience-building strategies.
Our Why: Trauma disrupts lives, but resilience rebuilds them. Inspired by Dr. Ann Masten’s concept of “ordinary magic,” we believe resilience is not rare but cultivated through supportive relationships, skill-building, and adaptive systems. By addressing both trauma and resilience, we help individuals and organisations not only survive adversity but thrive beyond it.
Our Services
Public workshops
Foundational training in trauma-informed and resilience-building practices
Our public workshops are designed for people from all walks of life—from professionals and community leaders to parents and volunteers. These sessions provide accessible, practical tools to recognise and respond to trauma, while fostering personal and collective resilience. Participants gain skills to create safe, supportive environments and build their capacity to thrive in the face of challenges.
Organisational workshops
Customised training for teams, leaders, and professionals
Our organisational workshops are tailored to help teams, leaders, and professionals integrate trauma-informed and resilience-building practices into their work externally with clients and/or internally within their work culture. These sessions focus on creating compassionate, trauma-aware environments and equipping individuals with strategies to enhance their well-being and effectiveness. Whether for leadership teams or frontline staff, our workshops foster a culture of care, collaboration, and resilience.
Individual sessions
Case Supervision & reflective sessions
We offer two types of 1:1 support - Supervision for social workers and Reflective sessions for anyone seeking space to pause and process
Rooted in trauma-informed and resilience-building practices, these sessions provide a safe, supportive space to slow down, reflect on your work or life, and navigate complexity with greater awareness. They are not therapy, but reflective spaces designed with you to build emotional resilience, deepen self-awareness, and reconnect with clarity, care, and purpose—whether you're supporting others or simply need space to be supported yourself.
Our Approach:
We believe change begins with connection. That’s why we don’t offer one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, we co-create pathways with our clients—through consultancy, capacity-building workshops, and supervision—rooted in empathy, cultural humility, and real-world relevance. When people feel seen, supported, and safe, transformation becomes possible.
Our work integrates globally recognised research, including SAMHSA’s trauma-informed principles, the ACEs Study, and Harvard’s resilience frameworks. By bridging rigorous science with practical tools, we help you transform challenges into opportunities for systemic, lasting change.
